6.4 Implementation
This section presents the current implementation level achieved, and the next
steps to be followed for a complete deployment.
Implementation status
Here is a summary of the current implementation level:
Full-featured grid portal acting as a single point of interaction, allowing a great
number of users to use the solution
Integration of modeling tools in the form of a workflow
Better automation of the process decreasing the need of human interaction
Creates a single view of the file systems by the use of GFS, which makes it
easier to execute the QSAR applications on a compute grid ...
